       3.1 Restrictions on Transfer of Shares. The Stockholder may not sell,
assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of ("Transfer") any of the Shares,

Stockholder, either voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law;
provided, however, that the Stockholder may Transfer any such securities (x) to
the Company pursuant to Section 2 hereof, (y) in accordance with this Section 3,
and (z) to Permitted Transferees of the Stockholder, so long as any such
transferee agrees to be bound by the provisions hereof.

       3.2 Dispositions in Breach of this Agreement. Any disposition or
attempted disposition of any Shares, Option Shares or other Common Stock or
Common Stock Equivalents in breach of the provisions of Section 3.1 hereof shall
be void, shall constitute a breach of this Agreement and shall entitle the
Company or its designee to repurchase all of the Shares, Option Shares or other
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, pursuant to the procedures set forth
in Section 3.3 hereof, at a purchase price per Share equal to the lower of the
Market Value Per Share or the Purchase Price Per Share as of the date of such
disposition or attempted disposition, minus, in the case of any Common Stock
Equivalents, the applicable exercise or conversion price. The repurchase rights
of the Company under this Section 3.2 will lapse if not exercised pursuant to
Section 3.3 hereof within 90 days of the date on which the Board of Directors of
the Company first receives actual notice of the disposition or attempted
disposition giving rise to such repurchase rights, but such failure to exercise
shall in no event constitute a waiver of any breach of this Agreement.

       3.3 Repurchase Procedure. The Company may exercise its repurchase rights
under Section 3 hereof by giving notice (the "Repurchase Notice") to the
Stockholder within ninety (90) days after the Board obtains actual knowledge of
the breach giving rise to such repurchase rights. The Repurchase Notice shall
specify the aggregate purchase price for the Shares, Option Shares or other
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, and the date, time and place for a
closing of the repurchase, such closing to be held not earlier than five (5)
days nor later than thirty (30) days after delivery of the Repurchase Notice by
the Company to the Stockholder. The Company's repurchase rights under Section
3.2 hereof shall lapse with respect to any event giving rise thereto if not
exercised within the foregoing time periods in accordance with the procedures
specified in this Section 3.3 except as otherwise provided in Section 5 hereof.
Upon tender by the Company of the purchase price for the securities being
repurchased hereunder in accordance with Section 6 hereof, all of the Shares,
Option Shares or other Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, being so

Stockholder's rights with respect to such Shares, Option Shares or other Common
Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, shall terminate with the exception of the

pursuant to Section 3.2, and the Stockholder hereby appoints the



                                      -10-
<PAGE>

Company as its attorney-in-fact to take all actions necessary and sign all
documents required to cancel such Shares, Option Shares or other Common Stock or
Common Stock Equivalents, on the Company's books and records.

       3.4 Drag-Along Rights.

              (a) If, at any time, any of the Institutional Investors determines
to transfer in a bona fide arm's length sale Common Stock and Common Stock
Equivalents owned by such Institutional Investor to any person or persons who
are not Affiliates of such Institutional Holder (the "Proposed Transferee") and
such transfer would trigger the drag-along rights provided under Section 9.5 of
the LLC Agreement and/or the provisions of the Stockholders Agreement, such
Institutional Investor(s) shall have the right (the "Drag Along Right"), subject
to applicable law and compliance with any other restrictions applicable to such
transfer, to require the Stockholder to sell, pursuant to this Section 3.4, to
the Proposed Transferee, on the same terms and conditions as applicable to such
Institutional Investor except as limited in Section 3.4(b), that same portion of
the Common Stock, Shares, Option Shares and Common Stock Equivalents then held
by the Stockholder as the other Company Stockholders subject to the drag-along
rights set forth in Section 9.5 of the LLC Agreement and/or pursuant to the
Stockholders Agreement are obligated to sell pursuant to such agreements (the
"Drag-Along Securities); provided that the exercise or conversion price of any
Common Stock Equivalents will be subtracted from any purchase price otherwise
paid therefor.

              (b) To exercise a Drag Along Right, KAT L.P. shall cause the
selling Institutional Investor(s) to give the Stockholder at least 15 days prior
to the proposed transfer to the Proposed Transferee, a written notice (the "Drag
Along Notice") containing (i) the name and address of the Proposed Transferee
and (ii) the proposed purchase price, the terms of payment and other material
terms and conditions of the Proposed Transferee's offer. The Stockholder shall
thereafter be obligated to sell all the Drag-Along Securities to the Proposed
Transferee. The Stockholder shall agree to enter into a purchase agreement in
form and substance approved by the Institutional Investor which may contain
provisions requiring customary representations as to ownership of the shares to
be purchased and the absence of liens thereon and customary indemnification
provisions, including indemnification from the Stockholder.

              (c) The Stockholder will not be required to participate in a
Drag-Along Right pursuant to this Agreement if its express or contractual
liability for representations, warranties and indemnities pursuant to the
related transaction exceeds the proceeds received by the Stockholder pursuant to
that transaction.

       3.5 Tag-Along Rights.

              (a) If any Kenner Member (as defined in the LLC Agreement)
determines to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock
or Common Stock Equivalents then owned by the Institutional Investors (the
"Transfer



                                      -11-
<PAGE>

Securities") to any Person or Persons (other than to the partners and
co-investors and their respective Affiliates of the Kenner Member) and such
sale, transfer or other disposition would trigger the tag-along rights provided
under Section 9.3 of the LLC Agreement and/or the provisions of the Stockholders
Agreement, KAT Holdings, L.P. shall cause the Kenner Member to notify the
Stockholder in writing (the "Tag Along Notice") of such proposed transfer and
its terms and conditions. Within 15 days of receipt of a Tag Along Notice, the
Stockholder shall notify (the "Tag Along Participation Notice") the Kenner
Member if it elects to participate in such transfer ("Tag Along Right") and
shall state the number of Shares, Rollover Options and other Common Stock that
the Stockholder desires to sell (the "Tag Along- Securities"). Upon electing to
transfer, the Stockholder shall be obligated to sell, at the same price and on
the same terms as the Kenner Member, the number of Tag-Along Securities stated
in its notice to the Kenner Member. The Stockholder may elect to sell such
number of Tag-Along Securities as is equal to the number of shares of Transfer
Securities to be purchased by the proposed transferee multiplied by a fraction,
the numerator of which shall be the number of Shares, Rollover Options and other
Common Stock held by the Stockholder and the denominator of which shall be the
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents held by
the Kenner Member and all other stockholders exercising tag-along rights under
the LLC Agreement and/or the Stockholders Agreement and other Buy-Sell
Agreements (including the Stockholder); provided, however, that the sale of the
Transfer Securities contained in the Tag Along Notice is consummated within 90
days following delivery of the Tag-Along Notice. The Stockholder shall agree to
enter into a purchase agreement in form and substance approved by the Kenner
Member which may contain provisions requiring customary representations as to
ownership of the Tag-Along Securities to be purchased and the absence of liens
thereon and indemnifications from the Stockholder (provided, that the
Stockholder will not be required to undertake express or contractual liability
for representations, warranties and indemnities pursuant to the tag-along
transaction if such liability exceeds the proceeds received by the Stockholder
pursuant to such transactions). If the sale is not consummated within 90 days
following delivery of the Tag-Along Notice, then the Stockholder shall no longer
be obligated but shall continue to have the right to sell such Stockholder's
Tag-Along Securities pursuant to such Tag Along Right and shall have the rights
under, and remain subject to, the provisions of this Section 3.5 with respect to
any subsequent proposed transfer described in this Section 3.5. In the event
that the proposed transferee does not purchase the number of shares of Tag-Along
Securities that the Stockholder elects to sell pursuant to the foregoing on the
same terms and conditions as the securities purchased from the Kenner Member,
then the Kenner Member shall not be permitted to sell any securities to the
proposed transferee. If no Tag Along Participation Notice is received by the end
of the 15 days referred to above, the Kenner Member shall have the right to
transfer the securities to the proposed transferee.

       4.1 Each certificate representing the Shares shall bear legends in or
substantially in the following form:

                  "THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
                  REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE
                  "ACT"), OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO TRANSFER,
                  SALE OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THESE SHARES MAY BE MADE UNLESS A
                  REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH RESPECT TO THESE SHARES HAS BECOME
                  EFFECTIVE UNDER THE ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
                  LAWS, OR THE COMPANY HAS BEEN FURNISHED WITH AN OPINION OF
                  COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS
                  NOT REQUIRED.

                  THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO
                  CERTAIN REPURCHASE AND OTHER RIGHTS IN FAVOR OF THE COMPANY
                  AND PROVISIONS RESTRICTING TRANSFER CONTAINED IN A BUY-SELL
                  AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF DECEMBER 10, 2003, A COPY OF WHICH WILL
                  BE FURNISHED BY THE COMPANY TO THE HOLDER OF THE SHARES
                  EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE UPON WRITTEN REQUEST AND WITHOUT
                  CHARGE."

       4.2 In addition, the Company shall make a notation regarding the
restrictions on transfer of the Shares in the stock books of the Company, and
such shares shall be transferred on the books of the Company only if and when
transferred or sold in compliance with all of the terms and conditions of this
Agreement.

5. REPURCHASE RESTRICTIONS.

       5.1 Contractual Restrictions on Repurchase. Notwithstanding any provision
to the contrary in Sections 2 or 3 hereof, in the event that any payment by the
Company of any portion of the purchase price for any Shares, or other Common
Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, that the Company is obligated pursuant to the
put to repurchase is, at the time such payment would otherwise be due hereunder,
prohibited by the terms of any of the Company's or any of its Subsidiaries'
financing agreements or indentures with its lenders or creditors to which the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound, the Company shall be entitled, but
not obligated, to complete the repurchase of such Shares, or other Common Stock
or Common Stock Equivalents, by tendering to the Stockholder (or any Permitted
Transferee pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof) (a) a check for that portion (if any)
of the cash purchase price the payment of which is not so prohibited, and/or (b)
a promissory note ("Note") for the entirety or balance of the cash purchase
price, as



                                      -13-
<PAGE>

applicable. Each such Note shall (i) bear interest at the Prime Rate, (ii)
provide for the payment of the principal evidenced thereby in annual
installments commencing one (1) year after such repurchase in such amounts as
are satisfactory to the Company's and its Subsidiaries' lenders, and (iii) be
subordinated to the Company's or any of its Subsidiaries' indebtedness to its
lenders on terms satisfactory to such lenders.

         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
the entire principal balance of the Note and any accrued and unpaid interest
under the Note shall be due and payable upon: (i) the Sale of the Company or
(ii) when the payment of such is no longer prohibited under the Company's
financing agreements or indentures. Once all accrued but unpaid interest has
been paid, the Company shall also periodically pay as much of the outstanding
principal balance of the Note when the payment of such is no longer prohibited
under the Company's financing agreements or indentures. While the Note will
provide for annual payments, the Company shall test on a quarterly basis (using
the Company's compliance certificates delivered under its financing agreements
and indentures for the following periods: March 31, June 30, September 30, and
December 31 of each year the Note is outstanding) to determine whether the
Company will be permitted to make the interest and principal payments required
by this paragraph. Each test shall be performed within ten (10) days of the
availability of the financial data required. Once it has been determined that
any payment of interest or principal is permitted, such payment(s) shall be made
within ten (10) days of the completion of the test.

       5.2 Impairment of Capital. If, even after giving effect to the provisions
of Section 5.1 above, the Company is prohibited by law from repurchasing any
Shares, or other Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, which it is obligated
pursuant to the put to repurchase hereunder due to any existing or prospective
impairment of its capital, the closing of such repurchase shall be delayed until
the first date on which the Company has sufficient capital to lawfully
repurchase such Shares, or other Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (the
"Delayed Closing Date"). In the event of any such delay, (a) the Company will be
obligated to pay, on the Delayed Closing Date, interest on the repurchase price
for such Shares, or other Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, at the Prime
Rate from the date on which the closing of the repurchase of such Shares, or
other Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, was originally scheduled to
occur to the Delayed Closing Date, and (b) the Stockholder shall remain bound by
the restrictions on Transfer contained herein during such delay.

6. PAYMENT FOR SHARES. At any closing held to consummate any repurchase of the
Shares, or other Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, hereunder, the
Stockholder shall deliver to the Company all certificates representing such
Shares, or other Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, duly endorsed in
blank or with duly executed stock powers attached, and the Company shall deliver
to the Stockholder a check in the amount of the repurchase price and/or a
promissory note as provided in Section 5.1 above.

7. TERM. This Agreement, and, except as provided in the following sentence, the
repurchase rights and obligations and all of the restrictions on transfer
contained herein (including, without limitation, the repurchase rights of the
Company pursuant to Sections 2 and 3 hereof), shall terminate upon the earliest
of (a) Sale of the Company (provided, however, that, in the event of a Sale of
the Company, Sections 2, 5 and 6 of this Agreement (and the related definitions)
shall not terminate until such time as the repurchase provisions contained
therein have been satisfied or have otherwise terminated or expired) or, (b) a
Qualified Public Offering (provided however, Section 10 shall not terminate).
The termination of this Agreement shall not affect any repurchase rights or
obligations, which have arisen hereunder prior to such termination.

8. ADJUSTMENT OF REPURCHASE PRICE. Upon any stock split, reverse stock split,
recombination of shares or other similar reorganization of the capital structure
of the Company, the repurchase price otherwise payable to the Stockholder upon
the repurchase of any Shares, or other Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents,
pursuant to Sections 2 and 3 hereof shall be proportionally adjusted to reflect
such reorganization.

9. CONSENT TO APPROVED SALE. If the Board and the holders of a majority of the
Common Stock then outstanding approve the Sale of the Company to an independent
third party pursuant to the Drag-Along Right (the "Approved Sale"), the
Stockholder shall consent to and raise no objections against the Approved Sale,
and if the Approved Sale is structured as a sale of capital stock, the
Stockholders shall agree to sell all of its Shares, Option Shares and other
Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents (including, if applicable, the Common
Stock and Common Stock Equivalents excluded in clauses x and y of the definition
of Common Stock Equivalents) on the terms and conditions approved by the Board
and the holders of a majority of the Common Stock then outstanding. The
Stockholder shall take all necessary and desirable actions as determined by the
Company (including, without limitation, providing such customary representations
and warranties and customary indemnification) in connection with the
consummation of the Approved Sale. For purposes of this Section 9, an
"independent third party" is any person who does not own in excess of 5% of the
Common Stock on a fully diluted basis, who is not controlling, controlled by or
under common control with any such 5% owner of the Common Stock and who is not
the spouse, ancestor, descendant (by birth or adoption) or descendent of a
grandparent of any such 5% owner of the Common Stock. If the Company or the
holders of the Company's securities enter into any negotiation or transaction
for which Rule 506 (or any similar rule then in effect) promulgated pursuant to
the Securities Act may be available with respect to such negotiation or
transaction (including a merger, consolidation or other reorganization), the
Stockholder shall, at the request of the Company, appoint a purchaser
representative (as such term is defined in Rule 501 promulgated pursuant to the
Securities Act) reasonably acceptable to the Company. If the Stockholder
appoints the purchaser representative designated by the Company, the Company
will pay the fees of such purchaser representative, but if the Stockholder
declines to appoint the purchaser representative



                                      -15-
<PAGE>

designated by the Company the Stockholder shall appoint another purchaser
representative (reasonably acceptable to the Company), and the Stockholder shall
be responsible for the fees of the purchaser representative so appointed.

10. UNDERWRITER LOCK-UP PERIOD.

         If requested by the Company and the lead underwriter of any public
offering (including a Qualified Public Offering) of the Common Stock (the "Lead
Underwriter"), the Stockholder shall irrevocably agree not to sell, contract to
sell, grant any option to purchase, transfer the economic risk of ownership in,
make any short sale of, pledge or otherwise transfer or dispose of, any interest
in any Shares, Option Shares, Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (except
Common Stock included in such public offering or acquired on the public market
after such offering) during such period of time following the effective date of
a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act that the
Lead Underwriter shall specify (the "Lock-up Period"). The Stockholder shall
further agree to sign such documents as may be requested by the Lead Underwriter
to effect the foregoing and agree that the Company may impose stop-transfer
instructions with respect to Common Stock acquired pursuant to an award until
the end of such Lock-up Period.

11. GENERAL.

hereunder to any party, shall be deemed to be sufficient if contained in a

Sections 2, 3, 6, 9 or 10 hereof, the Company will have no adequate remedy at
law, and accordingly will be entitled to specific performance and other
appropriate injunctive and equitable relief.

       11.2 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is or becomes
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any law, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any
way be affected or impaired.

       11.3 Waivers. No delay or omission by either party hereto in exercising
any right, power or privilege hereunder shall impair such right, power or
privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or
privilege preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right, power or privilege.

       11.4 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

       11.5 Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the heirs, successors and Permitted Transferees of each of the
parties hereto. It is expressly agreed that the Company may from time to time

the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents.

       11.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with any applicable
employment agreement, stock subscription agreement or stock option agreement to
which the Stockholder is a party, contains the entire understanding of the
parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained herein, supersedes
